The Paper shows that all the tools to fix the #Brexitdamage across almost every sector already exist in clauses within agreements both sides signed up to, in the NIP and TCA.

Yesterday, a Telegram channel associated with the #WagnerGroup posted a call for recruits:
"The Wagner Philharmonic has decided to take part in the Great World Concert and is holding auditions to select for its touring musical troupe."
A š§µ on #Wagner & what the post reveals.
"The Wagner Philharmonic has decided to take part in the Great World Concert and is holding auditions to select for its touring musical troupe."
A š§µ on #Wagner & what the post reveals.
1. Some background: Russian #VDV Airborne #Spetsnaz commander Dmitry Utkin adopted the callsign "Wagner" in the first Russian incursion in #Donbas in 2014, a triple entendre indicating his position as "conductor" of off-book scouts and saboteurs now known as the #WagnerGroup.
2. Much has been made of Wagner's affiliation with neo-Nazi movements in #Russia. But the cultural weave of Russian mercenaries is more nuanced.
"Wagner" also refers to the German composer's valorization during the #ThirdReich by Adolf Hitler & Nazi propagandist Joseph Goebbels.

I was asked what steps we are taking at rehearsals for @CotWChoir to sing together during #COVIDć¼19 times. I can't find the original question from @PollyRocket but here are our answers. Please feel free to share with other #choirs #musicians #musictherapists #singers (THREAD)
1. One way system to enter the building, only one person in the loos at a time. Regular anti bac etc.
2. Masks on whilst walking around the building. Can take off once in their seat. Choir members have an assigned seat and remain there (no swapping).

3. 2m apart from each other if talking inside, 1m+ if outside
4. 3m apart for singing spacing. Current guidance says 2m or 1m+ with mitigations, but we are sticking to 3m.
5. 4m from the first row of singers to the conductor and pianist.

In the #music industry, most of the bad press came from #piracy. Sites like Napster and P2P torrenting were rampant back in the day.
